Acrylic flowers

I built this bouquet of flowers from flat sheets of opaque acrylic plastic. The flower petals were machined on a CNC mill. The flower centers and stems were cut by hand with a hole saw and table saw, respectively. Everything is assembled with TAP quick-setting acrylic cement (similar to Weld-On #3). The label was made on a Brother label printer, and the label edges are actually much less apparent than it seems in this photo.
